Hi Atish,

Enabling KASAN_VMALLOC in syzbot config actually makes it boot for me!
It's probably good to enforce it and/or give better diagnostics and/or
fix KASAN w/o KASAN_VMALLOC, but I've sent a fix up for syzbot config
for now:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/pull/3167
Thanks for looking into it.
